Hallmark Holiday
Unlike the sanctity of the traditional high holidays, the Hallmark Holiday was invented by the executives of the Hallmark corporation to increase quarterly sales. Generally agreed upon to include Valentineā€™s Day, Motherā€™s Day, Fatherā€™s Day, and essentially any pseudo- holiday that a card can be sold for.
